The Jessie-Nator: A Grudgement Day- This is a super good episode and I totally recommend you to watch it. The plot definitely holds your attention, but it also teaches you an important lessons.

This episode teaches not to make someone jealous because the more you do, the more you hurt the other person and it's only going to make the situation worst. It also teaches if you love someone, you have to let them go. Tony and Jessie broke up, but they said "I'll always love you," to each other. They care for each other even though the spark is gone.

Some attempts were better than others....Well, in this episode of "Jessie", she finally gets her shot on Broadway...but as an understudy. Jessie is the understudy for the lead actress of the play, Susan Channing. Susan has never messed a performance and when Jessie becomes aware of this, she realizes she will have a lot more free time than she wanted. She might not get her time to shine on the stage. Luke then devises a plan to distract Susan from attending her performance. He and Ravi end up locking her out on the terrace tied up. Jessie then takes the stage only to be surprised with the arrival of Susan with Luke and Ravi moments into her act. Susan Channing, obviously furious, yells at Jessie for not controlling her kids and stealing her moment. Jessie is then taken out by security thus losing her shot and bruising her career again. This episode teaches that even though you care about someone and want them to succeed, you also have to make the right choices. It teaches you to be unselfish. Luke and Ravi obviously wanted to see Jessie shine, but their attempts at helping her do so were too much. Just because you think something is the right thing, doesn't mean it is. This episode shows that the kids love Jessie and care for her as much as she does for them. It shows family and doing anything possible for them even if it's morally wrong. In the end, we learn that sabotage isn't the way to go. There are much cleaner ways to land success. Success takes time and patience. This episode also teaches that changing yourself for others will never end out well. This is shown when Bertram wants to do a cooking web-show and Zuri and Emma come together and make him into a rapper and a cowboy in attempts to get viewers. These attempts fail.
